Start with a résumé. Keep going when you are ready.
A résumé is often the first thing a veteran needs, so it comes first. But a résumé is not a network, an interview answer, or a plan for leaving service. If we stopped at the résumé, you would have a better document and no help with the rest. So the résumé is the quick start, and the stages below cover what comes after it.
The seven stages
Start
Get unstuck fast. A veteran who needs a usable résumé today gets one, without learning the whole system first.
Done means: You have a résumé you are ready to send.
Target
Choose a civilian direction. Career Path compares six technology career paths side by side, so you can pick one to aim at.
Done means: You know which of those paths fits, which is a stretch, and which is not for you.
Proof
Turn experience into evidence. The Evidence Vault and evaluation import surface what you can actually support.
Done means: You can name the scale, scope, and outcomes you are able to defend.
Résumé & LinkedIn
Put the proof into plain civilian language. The résumé is for applications; LinkedIn opens doors into people.
Done means: Both read like a clear record of responsibility, not a wall of acronyms.
Applications
Compare your résumé to a real posting. ATS Tailoring separates supported rewrites from honest gaps. (ATS: the applicant tracking system employers use to sort résumés.)
Done means: You know where you match, and where a gap is real.
Interview
Turn proof into spoken answers. Interview Prep asks for more when the evidence is thin instead of inventing it.
Done means: You walk in with stories you can defend, because they are true.
Plan & readiness
Keep the tasks a résumé was never meant to hold in one transition plan: dates, records, benefits and the move.
Done means: You make the next decision with a plan, not a guess.
One standard holds across all of it
Operation MOS makes a veteran sound clear, not inflated. It translates real experience; it never invents a civilian version that collapses in an interview. When the facts are thin, the product asks for more instead of embellishing. The veteran reviews and approves every line before it becomes part of their story.
Free, and careful with your records
Every stage is free for every veteran, always. There is no premium tier. And the product tracks the task, not the document: no DD214, SSN, or medical record is required in ordinary workflows.
You do not have to use every stage.
Come in, build a résumé, and leave if that is all you need. If you are ready for more, every other tool is in the same menu.
